The Truth Behind the
Ape Man (1906)
Directed by Alice Guy
Blache this is an early short film. Without knowing what it is a
servant drinks his master's hair tonic.
Well to get the
obvious out of the way some of the imagery is super racist and at
best adjacent to black face. The joke the film is based around is not
too bad but unfortunately the execution is not good to modern
sensibilities. Probably one to give a miss.
2/5
